I have no experience with 802.16e, but have lots with 802.16d.
16d does not support MIMO. However, even without MIMO, we are ripping out
900/5.x and putting in Alvarion .16d. The diversity alone gives it penetration
characteristics equal to or better than 900. WiMax does cost more, as we all
We did not find that WiMax in general was better than 900. The key isn't WiMax,
per se, but diversity antennas. Performance is *helped* by being 3.65 WiMax but
that alone does NOT obviate the need for 900 in our experience. Diversity is
key.

so what wimax gear are you using?

Has anyone seen the Alvarion 3.65ghz 802.16e equipment in operation? Was
talking to one vendor that claimed if you run the system in MIMO that with
the diversity you can do NLOS as good as 900mhz and if you get the AP on a
300ft tower that it starts to feel like 700mhz. He claimed the NLOS was so
That would only be true if the data services are somewhat
purpose-specific and not Internet access. Doing what this vendor told
you would seriously affect aggregate performance of the cell because
of low rate modulation of the NLOS and/or distant customers.
If you are doing sensor networks or POS

wimax is engineered to handle some of this better than my alvarion 900.

I too have heard from others that WIMAX was designed so that the customers
with poor connections don't take performance away from the rest with good
connections. So far I have yet
